    Here are the 2 '64-'67 trans tunnel "plates" that OPGI sells for the Chevelle.
    Which one would a '65 Skylark with a bench seat use? Any difference if its a GS or SBB?
    Thanks,

    In my '66 Special, I used a repo Chevelle hump. It is identical to the hump originally used in my '66 GS. It looks kinda like the first one. I think it just may be a bad picture.
    BUT!!!
    The repo hump did have to be modified ALOT to fit around the Hurst shifter I put on the Saginaw trans.

    So it all depends on which trans and shifter use use in your car.

    I do believe the hump used in the '64-65 floor shift cars with the 300 engine is nothing like the hump in the GS's. There was a post this week with lots of pics. Thread was 'nailhead manual setup for sale' or something like that.

    Yup! I saw that one. Thats what kind of got me going on this thread. The 300ci Skylarks Have that mini console that I think looks great. Check out Brian's Holy Trinity of Skylarks. He has both styles.
    The GS console, as well as being quite $$$ wouldnt go with a bench seat. I kinda like that boxy one with the round shifter handle and boot, prolly have to trim that one as well. Shoot its only $38. And $14 shipping :)

    GS Nailhead clutch linkage........wow.

    Shifter Hump

    Hi Andrew,I have the second one shown in mine now and I ordered for a 65 GTO but I do think it will work with a console,I included a pic of mine so you can see what it looks like installed. I bought one of those Mini Consoles on EBay about a week and half ago and am going to have a hard time finding a hump for it as well as boot and will probably ending up selling it if I cannot figure it out...............Bruce.

    I think that one is correct but it is badly beaten up..Andrew the top one from OPG is real close..This is what I know from the 68-72 body stlyle.. Are the 65-67 different?? They have the same floor console... The way I understand it there is no differences in the console one to the non console..Am I wrong??Teach Me!! :rant: Please!! :laugh:
